If you're craving an unforgettable taste of Brazil right in the heart of Bellevue, look no further than Novilhos Brazilian Steakhouse. Renowned for its authentic rodízio dining experience, this steakhouse brings the vibrant flavors of Brazilian cuisine to life, creating a multi-sensory feast for meat lovers and adventurous eaters alike.

At Novilhos, the star of the show is undoubtedly the selection of expertly grilled meats. From the rich and decadent Filet Mignon wrapped in bacon for $20.00—where each bite melts in your mouth—to the succulent Picanha, a cherished Brazilian cut seasoned to perfection with rock salt, you are in for a truly gourmet treat. The Pork Ribs glazed in their homemade barbecue sauce at $36.00 are a must-try for the serious carnivore, while the lightly seasoned Chicken Thighs at $14.00 are equally tantalizing.

No Brazilian meal is complete without side dishes that elevate the culinary experience, and Novilhos does not disappoint. Indulge in the crispy Fried Polenta sticks, a nod to the Italian immigrants who contributed to Brazil's rich culinary tapestry for only $5.00, or savor the rich flavor of Farofa—a delightful mixture of toasted cassava flour with bacon and spices, priced at $9.00. These sides, bursting with flavor, perfectly complement your main courses and showcase the restaurant's ability to honor both traditional and contemporary Brazilian tastes.

Dining at Novilhos is an immersive experience, enhanced by a warm and inviting atmosphere. The interior is thoughtfully designed to create a friendly and welcoming vibe, perfect for family gatherings or a night out with friends. As you settle in, you’ll immediately feel the attentive service that has customers raving—from the expertly trained staff bringing you freshly grilled meats to the staff's genuine smiles that make every visit feel like home.

My family went here for my dad’s birthday last night and it was absolutely delightful! The food was as beautiful as it was delicious. Almost everything on the salad bar was gluten free, and the meats were so tender and juicy! The grilled pineapple is an absolute must. The manager was really friendly and it was a great overall experience. They understood that my son was a very picky eater, and didn’t seem to mind that I brought his own food.

This is a great find in the Bellevue area. Price is very reasonable given comparable options locally. The food is well done, tasty and delicious and the portions are generous. The salad bar has a huge and wonderful variety of vegetables and other options. I particularly enjoyed the kale salad and side dishes. Servers were friendly and consistently brought freshly cooked cuts of some very tasty meats. The drink menu is expansive, particularly the whisky and wines, and sweet Brazilian mixed drink options. Hostess was very lovely. She greeted us promptly, was very attentive, and sat us immediately. The atmosphere was impressive and I could see having an event here. Highly recommend this restaurant. Easy to make reservations on Open Table too!

Novilhos is hands down one of the best steakhouses around! Their rodízio is unbeatable—every cut of meat is cooked to perfection—and their happy hour is just as impressive with an amazing selection of food and drinks. The atmosphere is always warm and welcoming, thanks to the incredible team. Bartenders Ariana and Bri always go above and beyond, and the general manager makes you feel like family every time you’re there. Truly a place where both the food and hospitality shine. Highly recommend!

My family and I had an amazing dinner experience at Novilhos. The salad bar had an enormous amount of hot and cold side dishes not including all the sides that are brought directly to the table. Everything was extremely fresh and tasty. I was shocked to find out that there are more than 16 types of meats and steaks served. One meat after the other that arrived hot at the table was more tastier than the other. This is definitely a place to go for all the meat lovers. Aside from an amazing food experience. The restaurant atmosphere was very calming. The glasses and silverware were polished and the restaurant was very clean. The owners were on the floor serving and checking on guests. This family restaurant cares not only about the reputation of their restaurant but about their customers experience and quality of food. This place is worth every penny. I highly recommend.
